Compelling Pieces

CMulti-disciplinary artist Jorge Ballará puts his creative stamp on a wide variety of media: oils, vibrant pastels, acrylics and 3D sculpture. “I’m usually inspired by either a moment in present time or a past memory,” he says. “My style swings from the realistic to the whimsical, but always dramatic and contemporary.” Meanwhile, his eye-grabbing 3D sculpture work encompasses an array of designs and materials — from wood to metal and papier mâché. Inspired by nature and primitive art, the structures are visually delicate, yet strong in quality and design; BallaraArt.com.
